That sounds a bit scary NZ. I do hope you get your supports up quick. Old houses do have their quirks. But, these days, you can't get a house with that kind of character. So, It definitely sounds worth it to "support" the old gal.
I was bored, a million things I should be finishing and I decide on not 1, 2 but 3 farm quilts. I will do these blocks 2 at a time. Because it is just one block a month. But, I also need to decide how to finish my farm swap block quilt as well. I have it on my design wall while the idea is taking shape. |
So many terrific blocks. I have learned my lesson to wait a while before tackling the block. There are so many wonderful ideas, I would end up with a sty full to use them all. Good job everyone.

Oh my goodness NZ!! That's a bit scary to have happen. Did you purchase a home warranty? Though, with an old home, you can expect some quirks but this is about the structural integrity and should be covered.
I keep looking at my block and the finishing instructions and I think I'm going to change my quilt design from the pattern. I have some ideas floating around in my head so I'm going to let them simmer a bit... Judith...I have my summertime blocks quilt to do too but I cannot find a panel I like. I keep looking but, so far, nothing appeals to me. |

Well my piglet is from sunny and hot California - she cannot face the sun.
Just need to stitch around the sun and piglet. I’ll do that when it gets cooler upstairs. Lol |
Okay, Joy and Wilbur are complete. They are completely quilted and embellished. Now to wait till September block comes out.
